There is no such thing as perfect radio - and therein lies its delicious unpredictability. In fact, so charming is this quality that 90 per cent of UK adults tune into the medium every week. Like many things, radio done well sounds effortless. It is not. Producing great radio is partly down to instinct and partly down to learning then mastering the basics. Drawing upon his thirty years spent working with some of the finest talents in British radio, David Lloyd shares a plethora of valuable tips and tricks of the trade in this unique and authoritative guide to broadcasting success. Covering speech and music formats, local and national stations, technical and artistic skills, content and style considerations, and much, much more, this how-to is essential and accessible reading for all - whether you are taking your tentative first steps in radio or refreshing your existing industry knowledge. Lloyd's hugely entertaining selection of anecdotes, examples, research, insight and pointers sets out to bottle the very essence of memorable radio, determining the factors that differentiate a truly great broadcaster from a distinctly average one, and helping budding hopefuls achieve their radio goals.

"By the early 1960s, and for the first time in history, most Americans across the nation could tune their radio to a station that aired conservative programming from dawn to dusk. People listened to these shows in remarkable numbers; for example, the broadcaster with the largest listening audience, Carl McIntire, had a weekly audience of twenty million, or one in nine American households. For sake of comparison, that is a higher percentage of the country than would listen to conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh forty years later. As this Radio Right phenomenon grew, President John F. Kennedy responded with the most successful government censorship campaign of the last half century. Taking the advice of union leader Walter Reuther, the Kennedy administration used the Internal Revenue Service and the Federal Communications Commission to pressure stations into dropping conservative programs. This book reveals the growing power of the Radio Right through the eyes of its opponents using confidential reports, internal correspondence, and Oval Office tape recordings. With the help of other liberal organizations, including the Democratic National Committee and the National Council of Churches, the censorship campaign muted the Radio Right. But by the late 1970s, technological innovations and regulatory changes fueled a resurgence in conservative broadcasting. A new generation of conservative broadcasters, from Pat Robertson to Ronald Reagan, harnessed the power of conservative mass media and transformed the political landscape of America"--

Demons...? Demonic activity...? What would our world be like if the floodgates were opened? What would happen if the hand that kept these evil entities at bay was removed? And whose hand would that be? This is the Supernatural Age. It is more than a ‘cautionary tale’; it is a prophecy plucked from the pages of the Bible-or at least a plausible interpretation of what could possibly be. And what exactly makes Biblical Prophecy so mysterious; worth anyone’s time? Simple-eerily, a quarter of the Bible is documented prophecy and approximately 75% of these prophecies have already been fulfilled—to the tee. Bible prophecy is batting a thousand; it has a perfect record. If a psychic laid out over 2000 predictions and every single one of them came true to the letter, if it wouldn’t be enough to make one trust the psychic, it’d at least make one take a second look. Why not the Bible? Besides, a rapture-believing church is long overdue for a fresh new perspective on what they believe. This time, however, the message to these Christians is...BEWARE. It is a warning—a just-in-case scenario they need to seriously consider when it comes to their rapture. It is a just-in-case scenario when it comes to the Tribulation, the Prophet, and the Antichrist. Although...‘The Supernatural Age’...is written with love and concern for Christians and non-Christians alike; it is far from a fluffy feel-good novel of things and things to come. It is a haunting and ominous tale by all accounts, but not without a light at the end of the tunnel. This is a supernatural thriller; full of suspense, unexpected twists, turns, and surprises. It is an imaginative and daring version of the Bible’s foretelling of the ‘last days’. It is as much written to shock and entertain the reader as it is to inform and educate. It is thought provoking. It is peppered with horrors, danger, suspicion, intrigue, deception, paranormal phenomena, and demon possession. Despite it being fiction, merely a story—it can be most provocative, even controversial, if one allows it. Yet, even with all the precarious settings, situations, and global devastation; it manages to squeeze in the beauty of faith, romance, love, honor, and trust as well as the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Thus, it truly and fully lands in the Christian genre, as it is intended to be. In addition, the...’Supernatural Age’...is a timely novel. Not only is it perfect and apropos for the times pertaining to what is currently trending in the political arena worldwide; it is suitable for a myriad of audiences. Younger, older, rich and poor, religious, spiritual, Atheists and Agnostics, all genders, all walks of life, regardless of race, sexual orientation, political affiliation, culture or creed—the Supernatural Age is a novel for all people. Take notice, be informed, be warned, and be aware. Whether the Supernatural Age is read like a movie, or read as a reference, whether it falls into the realm of pure entertainment, or a foreboding warning; either way..., it is a novel worth considering. Hopefully, it is a novel well received; a novel worthy of finding an intimate place in the heart of one’s library. Bottom line..., the ultimate battle between good and evil is looming. The question is..., are you ready?
